Tampa, FL, Dec. 30, 2021 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- via NewMediaWire -- B2Digital Incorporated (the “Company” or “B2Digital”) (OTCMKTS:BTDG), the premier development league for mixed martial arts (“MMA”), is pleased to announce that the Company has powerfully expanded its licensing range to 20 states and plans to put on 24 live MMA events during the first six months of 2022.

Management notes that 24 events during a six-month period would represent a new Company record as well as a 26% jump over its prior record period, which took place during the first half of 2021. In addition, the Company is now licensed to put on live MMA events in 20 states, which represents an 82% jump relative to its geographic range as of one year ago.

The expanded pace and widening geographic range combined with the fact that the company is planning to have LIVE Events in 13 states in the first 6 months of 2022 is expected to have a material positive impact on brand awareness while helping to lay a foundation for further growth in the Company’s ONE More Gym Official B2 Training Facilities Network in 2022.

“Twenty-four events in the first 6 months of next year will represent a significant jump over our live event pace during the first half of 2021, which was a record period in its own right for the Company at the time,” noted Greg P. Bell, CEO of B2 Digital. “In addition, we have now basically doubled our state licensing over the past year, giving us a vastly expanded range of potential venues to continue driving growth in our pace of live events, which has strong implications for both our topline growth and the geographic expansion of the B2 brand – a combination of factors that sets up very well for an unprecedented year of success in 2022.”
